Q. The organism which tolerate wide range of salinity called …A… II. The organism which tolerate narrow range of salinity called …B… Choose the correct option for A and B
A) A–stenohaline; B–euryhaline
B) A–euryhaline; B–stenohaline
C) A–isohaline; B–euryhaline
D) A–heterohaline; B–isohaline
Explanation
Some organisms are tolerant to wide range of salinities called euryhaline, $e.g.,$ salmon fish but others are restricted to narrow range called stenohaline like shark and string rays. Many freshwater animals cannot live for long in sea water and vice-versa because of the osmotic problems they would face
